Surely we are not going to start counting signing off on a report as indicative of good/bad mentoring?
What's important is whether podlings are getting what they need from their mentors. Besides, someone who has actively mentored one new podling through initial setup in a first month will have one "tick" while someone else who has done little more than sign off on reports for the years will have many "ticks". Case in point, I've not actively mentored a project for at least a couple of years (I just signed up to one this month), yet according to this measure I am one of the more active mentors. Lets not demean the work good new mentors are doing by counting a few characters on a wiki page. Note, I'm not saying rolling to assist the incubator and mentors is a bad thing. I'm saying this specific example is a bad thing.

So it measures how many times a mentor has signed off (summed across all podlings) during that time span.
